About Whispering Oaks

Whispering Oaks has a long history as it was established as a guest house in 2003. Restoration and redecorating is a on-going process, we aim to appeal to young professional business people, golfers and holiday-makers. The guest house is situated within 10km from various golf courses, including the well-known Fancourt and George Golf Course. Situated in the beautiful Caledon Street, with its wide sidewalks lined with oaks, it is the ideal location for a family holiday or business trip as it is within walking distance from the centre of town. All eight Whispering Oaks bedrooms are en-suite, have flat screen televisions, DSTV, good quality mattresses and white percale linen. Guests are within walking distance to many good restaurants, the Botanical Gardens, the George Museum and only a few minute’s drive to two beautiful beaches, Victoria Bay and Wilderness beach.
